Turnigy 6S 2,650 30C batteries

[Ken4]

My friend uses the Turnigy 6s 3000mah 20c. He only hovers and does figure 8s. His packs bloated on the 5th cycle onwards. My Turnigy 6s 2650 30c started bloating around 20cycles and Im doing 3D.

Electrical tape could always fix that issue in a second.

Yes, it will wear through and juice will leak out out the corner of your battery.

Juice!!?? dont know if you are aware but the lipo cells are dry, there is no juice to leak through, further more wouldnt worry about the shrink rap wearing through by the time that happens the pack will be long gone anyway.

All going strong. But some packs have more unmatched cells than others.

I'll be getting in the 6s 2650 30C lipos tomorrow. What is the suggested pinion and throttle curves.


Thanks

Lex, My canopy was rubbing lightly early in the season and it rubbed a TINY hole through the shrink wrap, and then through the cell membrane. This happened in under 15 flights.

The pack quickly puffed and had to be scrapped. I wrap the top end of my packs with electrical tape now.

i have a question on the price of batteries that are the same MAH, they are some times different picres and i cant figure that out, any input on that. thanks scott

[DKS_ONE]

Some batts of the sam MAH rating have a higher c rating, so that would be why they would be more expensive. For example, a 2500mah 15c battery would cost less than a 2500mah 50c battery. The other possiblility is just different manufacturers/models. If you're talking about the same manufacturer though, look at the c rating, that's probably why.
